Remember #MickFuller?

• formerly the NSW Police Commissioner
• neighbour to #ScottMorrison (who gave him a quick call when a cabinet member was credibly accused of committing fraud)
• co-owner of a racehorse in the #corruption-plagued racing industry along with other senior police figures and some shady businessmen (two of whom were suspects in criminal cases; one of whom also had lucrative contracts with police) in a massive #ConflictOfInterest for which Fuller was (eventually) heavily criticised by the police watchdog (the critically underfunded #LECC).

Where has Fuller ended up? As a partner at scandal-ridden #PwC, a major consulting firm recently revealed as selling government secrets to plutocrats & corporations to facilitate massive #TaxAvoidance.

And now today's story is that Fuller has been in frequent contact with his old mate Reece Kershaw, the Australian Federal Police (#AFP) Commissioner. Kershaw didn't declare this as a #ConflictOfInterest despite the AFP now investigating PwC. Maybe Fuller might know a thing or two about what ought to be included on such declarations...

SMS exchanges between AFP commissioner and PwC 'mate' revealed, as top cop faces questions over conflict of interest

“Commissioner Kershaw has been challenged on whether he failed to declare a conflict of interest over his friendship with the former NSW police commissioner-turned PwC partner, after it was revealed the pair had met several times in relation to a $794,000 contract awarded to the accounting firm without a public tender.”
